Summary

The investigators will compare endobronchial ultrasound transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) with intranodal forceps biopsy (EBUS-IFB) as it relates to the rate of diagnosis of suspected sarcoidosis.

Conditions

  • Mediastinal Lymphadenopathy
  • Sarcoidosis, Pulmonary
  • Mediastinal Diseases

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Endobronchial Ultrasound-Guided Intranodal Forceps Biopsy

Patients with mediastinal adenopathy will undergo EBUS-IFB and EBUS-TBNA during the same procedure to compare the yield of this procedure with EBUS-TBNA alone.
